Yearning For Love

My Man is more than handsome .
I am proud of him because he is mine .
Sometimes his face has a bright shine.
Someday I will have to pay a ransom

I love him more than my life  
Whenever I am with him I feel alive
I promise you this is not a lie
This tall cutie is my whole life

But I wonder if he feels the same  
Somehow I think he thinks that am lame
He thinks that all I want is his fame 
Little does he know that is not my aim

I wish he could take a peek into my heart
Then will he realise that my love is smart
But then he does not know and can never 
Maybe that is why he brings me such hurt  

The reality is i love but he does not love me 
I fear that he only lusts me 
After all I am not as good looking and well known.
It is not fair to love someone who does not care

There is no hope for such love 
I pray for someone more Loving and caring
He does not have to be charming
Because now I know charm is never enough
